Launched after the success of Manhunt, Murder featured the
same mix of contemporary murder and crime-adventure stories, but was
discontinued in the face of fierce competition before establishing its
identity with the reading public. The title is given as Murder! on the cover only.
Five issues were published between September 1956 and September 1957.
